Beware~ My wife went to this location (4012 Gateway Drive #120 Colleyville TX 76034) for some work done and in 24 hours had a condition called "Infectious Blepharitis" my wife called Laura Rappoport to report her condition and that she needed to be treated with an antibiotic. To my wife's surprise Laura stated that my wife's eyes were clomped? I am not sure
what that means, however, I told my wife to call her back and at least get a refund to help cover the doctors expense and medication which by the way never happen. To all you ladies out there please do your homework before you let
this lady touch you! My beautiful wife lost 3 days of work and was in agony from facial swelling, redness and drainage from the infection~

You have demonstrated through your obnoxious, untruth, hostel down right trickery posting for all to see just why you are not a nurse taking care of the ill. I guess that's why you are a tattoo/artist/technician. Do not e-mail me again!
Enough said. TW

Admitted photos NOT of Mrs. Walsh

An admission by Mr. and Mrs. Walsh that the photos they submitted are NOT of Mrs. Walsh or of work done by Laura Rappoport.
That about sums up this fictitious complaint.
Defamation is a serious offense.
Defamation may be a criminal or civil charge. It encompasses both written statements, known as libel, and spoken statements, called slander.
I'm happy to put the LeBlanc Law Firm in touch with you if you desire.

Mrs. Walsh admits images are NOT her
AUTHOR: laurar - (United States of America)

Great, an admission by Tim and Bianca Walsh that the images they submitted are NOT Bianca Walsh or the work of Laura Rappoport.
That should be the end of this unsubstantiated, deceptive complaint.
OR
libel 1) n. to publish in print (including
pictures), writing or broadcast through radio, television or film, an
untruth about another which will do harm to that person or his/her
reputation, by tending to bring the target into ridicule, hatred, scorn
or contempt of others. Libel is the written or broadcast form of
defamation, distinguished from slander which is oral defamation. It is
a tort (civil wrong) making the person or entity (like a newspaper,
magazine or political organization) open to a lawsuit for damages by the
person who can prove the statement about him/her was a lie.
Publication need only be to one person, but it must be a statement which
claims to be fact, and is not clearly identified as an opinion. While
it is sometimes said that the person making the libelous statement must
have been intentional and malicious, actually it need only be obvious
that the statement would do harm and is untrue. Proof of malice,
however, does allow a party defamed to sue for "general damages" for
damage to reputation, while an inadvertent libel limits the damages to
actual harm (such as loss of business) called "special damages." "Libel
per se" involves statements so vicious that malice is assumed and does
not require a proof of intent to get an award of general damages. Libel
against the reputation of a person who has died will allow surviving
members of the family to bring an action for damages. Most states
provide for a party defamed by a periodical to demand a published
retraction. If the correction is made, then there is no right to file a
lawsuit. Governmental bodies are supposedly immune for actions for
libel on the basis that there could be no intent by a non-personal
entity, and further, public records are exempt from claims of libel.
However, there is at least one known case in which there was a financial
settlement as well as a published correction when a state government
newsletter incorrectly stated that a dentist had been disciplined for
illegal conduct. The rules covering libel against a "public figure"
(particularly a political or governmental person) are special, based on
U. S. Supreme Court decisions. The key is that to uphold the right to
express opinions or fair comment on public figures, the libel must be
malicious to constitute grounds for a lawsuit for damages. Minor errors
in reporting are not libel, such as saying Mrs. Jones was 55 when she
was only 48, or getting an address or title incorrect. 2) v. to
broadcast or publish a written defamatory statement.

Admission of false evidence, End of Story
AUTHOR: laurar - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Friday, August 24, 2012
Wonderful, now you've admitted that the pictures are NOT of Ms. Bianca Walsh, or of Laura Rappoport's work.
That's the end of this story.
Or, you can let me know if you would like to proceed:
slander n. oral defamation, in which someone
tells one or more persons an untruth about another which untruth will
harm the reputation of the person defamed. Slander is a civil wrong
(tort) and can be the basis for a lawsuit. Damages (payoff for worth)
for slander may be limited to actual (special) damages unless there is
malicious intent, since such damages are usually difficult to specify
and harder to prove. Some statements such as an untrue accusation of
having committed a crime, having a loathsome disease, or being unable to
perform one's occupation are treated as slander per se since the harm
and malice are obvious, and therefore usually result in general and even
punitive damage recovery by the person harmed. Words spoken over the
air on television or radio are treated as libel (written defamation) and
not slander on the theory that broadcasting reaches a large audience as
much if not more than printed publications.

Misleading, fraudulent photos, not of Ms. Walsh
AUTHOR: laurar - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 23, 2012
Mrs. Walsh posted two pictures, supposedly of her damaged eyes, on her complaint. Both pictures have been found to be copied from other websites.
The picture of the woman with red upper and lower eyelids actually came from DIYHealth.com. You can take a look at it's original form here,
http://www.diyhealth.com/knowing-blepharitis-eyelid-inflammation.html
The close-up picture came from MedicineNet.com. You can take a look at the un-edited version of the picture here, http://www.medicinenet.com/blepharitis/article.htm#what_is_blepharitis
Copying photos from other websites and using them as your own is a significant problem. It is unfortunate that Bianca Walsh chooses to conduct herself in such a manner. This certainly detracts from the legitimacy of her complaint.

Another Fraudulent Picture, this one from DIYHealth.com
AUTHOR: laurar - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 23, 2012
Now it is confirmed that both of the pictures Bianca Walsh posted, supposedly of her eyes, are fraudulent and are NOT of Ms. Walsh after all. The picture of the woman with red eyelids came from DIYHealth.com. You can take a look for yourself here, http://www.diyhealth.com/knowing-blepharitis-eyelid-inflammation.html
The picture of the extreme close-up came from MedicineNet.com. Take a look at that one here, http://www.medicinenet.com/blepharitis/article.htm#what_is_blepharitis
It is a shame that Ms. Walsh feels like it's necessary to make false, misleading, inaccurate and fraudulent complaints.

Mrs. Walsh posted a misleading picture
AUTHOR: laurar - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 23, 2012
Well, what do you know, the picture Mrs. Walsh posted leading readers to believe it was a picture of her eye is really just copied from an article written for MedicineNet.com. You can take a look at it here, http://www.medicinenet.com/blepharitis/article.htm.
Who knows where the other pictures came from, or who is in them, but this certainly does not give her or her complaint much credibility.
Check out the real article for this photo here http://www.medicinenet.com/blepharitis/article.htm. I've also posted it here in it's original form, before it had been edited to look like it came from Ms. Walsh.

I'm not sure why someone posting complaints won't use her name but I will make the assumption that "Mrs. ****" and "Disappointed in Southlake", is actually Mrs.Walsh from Watauga, so I will address this complaint, once again, based on that assumption.
Mrs. Walsh was informed that it would be best to remove all of the lashes that were glued together and to her eyelids. However, that would take more time that I had booked, as she told me she needed a lash 'fill'. She said she couldn't do that due to "time constraints" and asked that I fill in where I could then the others "could be replaced as they fell out." As per her request, I filled in the very few lashes I could find that were not glued together and tried as best I could to un-stick some of the excessive amounts of adhesive that the previous technician had used.
Mrs. Walsh refused my request that she stop by my office or call me regarding her situation and also refused to send me a picture of her eyes at the time of her complaint so I can't comment on the validity of her posted photos.
Again, I wish the Walshes well with their search for a provider that meets their needs.

"Infectious Blepharitis" It is what it is!
AUTHOR: Tim - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 23, 2012
To whom it may concern;
My name is Mrs. ****, I searched several lash
salons/permanent makeup locations on the internet to find the best one. I thought because Laura was a nurse she would be a good fit. I did share a story
with Laura that during my last visit with un-named salon that my lashes did
stick together when I opened my eyes. Laura never stated that my extended
lashes were botched or that they needed to be removed.
I would think an R.N. with over 10 years of training in permanent
make-up would have removed all the lashes if she felt in her professional
option that were applied Botched. Why
would you apply lashes to a client that in your option were applied incorrectly?
Additionally, I never said that the last place was terrible.
I was looking for a location that best suited me, and could work with my crazy
work hours.
I spoke to Laura several times via texting, and she did ask
me to come to the clinic. I told her that it was not necessary; I explained my
diagnosis was from a Medical Doctor in Southlake, Texas "Infectious
Blepharitis" I also told her that over 50% of my lashes had fallen
out. She denied this had anything to do with her lashes or adhesive that she
used. I ask her politely for a refund.
As Laura stated in her answer It
is always unfortunate when someone ends up with a procedure they are not
pleased with I could not agree more. I still dont know why you wanted to argue
with us. The diagnosis is what it is.
As my husband stated,
please DO your "homework" before having any procedure done. Your provider should see to it that you are pleased with her work and free from
infection during follow up.
I want to thank my husband
for his love and support during this time. Testimonials are priceless.
Disappointed in Southlake,
Texas

Mr. Walsh's wife, unfortunately, went to another provider and ended up with a botched procedure.
Ms. Walsh told me that her experience at the unnamed place was "terrible", that the "other provider started crying", and that "by the end of the procedure she couldn't even open her eyes".
The Walshes refused my request for her to call me, stop by my office, or at least send a picture so I could make an assessment, and instead began sending threatening text messages.
I did NOT speak to Ms. Walsh so I must assume that the word "clomped" is her description. That isn't a term I would have chosen and I have no idea what kind of condition that might describe.
It is always unfortunate when someone ends up with a procedure they are not pleased with. About 20% of my business is correcting other people's mistakes and I strive to correct the errors as best I can each and every time. I wish the Walshes well with their search for a provider.
If you are interested in finding out more about the procedures I do you can go to www.mpipermanentmakeup.com, or to read what other clients have to say, go to http://mpipermanentmakeup.com/about/testimonials.htm, or call 817-600-7264.
As Mr. Walsh states, please DO your "homework" before having any procedure done.
